Tool Search: TEDS
The Technical Education Data System (TEDS) is the official repository of student data for all vocational/technical programs taught in Kentucky. Information from this tool is then used in the TEDS Extract. Universities, community and technical colleges, state-operated area technology centers, locally operated technology centers, high schools and middle schools report technical program student data to TEDS.
